Many may be wondering how to setup tax exemption in their eCommerce stores for their customers. There is a simple step-by-step process this article will discuss to set up tax exemption for your customers in your eCommerce store through Magento.

In late January of 2015 the first remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability, or “shoplift” bug, was reported to Magento by Check Point Software Technologies. This bug affects both Magento Enterprise Edition and Magento Community Edition, and it allows attackers to obtain control over a store and its sensitive data, including personal customer information. As of February 9, 2015, Magento released a patch for this issue.

Setting up Swatches

Product Images

Using images of consistent quality, size, and proportion gives your product catalog a professional look with commercial appeal. If you have a large catalog with several images per product, you can easily have hundreds, if not thousands of product images to manage.

Minimum Advertised Price

Merchants are sometimes prohibited from displaying a price that is lower than the manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP). Magento’s Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) gives you the ability to remain in compliance with the manufacturer’s requirements while offering your customers a better price. Because requirements differ from one manufacturer to another, you can configure your store to prevent the display of your actual price on pages where it is not allowed to appear according to the terms of the manufacturer.Continue reading Magento Support: Minimum Advertised Price
